Should have been a blowout. Instead, we got lucky on that fumble, had a clutch play by Cobb and prevented a(nother) meltdown.

This team just can't seem to put other teams away. Rodgers played terrible despite great offensive line play. Defense definitely held up their end. Nice to see Fackerell making a name for himself. Did Peppers even play?

We SHOULD have blown them out.
We also caught some breaks when Manning missed some open guys.
Also, once again we had some SHOULD HAVE BEEN interceptions.
Our D-backs need to make those plays.
We are lucky it didn't cost us in the end.

This easily could've been a 3TD day for Rodgers. The stats don't say it, but he wasn't horrible. Remember the TD to Cobb that was called back, Nelson dropped one that led to an INT, and Richard Rodgers dropped a perfect pass.

Of course, against NYG's depleted secondary, more should've been done.

Both Cobb and Adams had good performances. I still don't know why Abbrederis hasn't seen the field. Even Janis was in on a play.

After Lacy broke the big run and followed up with another solid run the crowd started to chant "Eddie! Eddie! "

Late in the game a few people were calling Aaron "Cutler".

Some moron was screaming that Mike was calling terrible plays. He ignored the mediocre execution. He also screamed for Lacy even though he was injured. Guys like him make going to the game so worthwhile.

Lacy's injury caused us to change things up a little, but we were not predictable. That is always people's first criticism when the execution begins to falter, and it makes me want to put my head through a wall.

James's play was even more inexcusable last night than Aaron's. When he comes in for Lacy, he's supposed to provide a change of pace. All he is doing is causing us yardage right now. He's not playing with any confidence from what I can tell. If Lacy can't go, we need another option.

Yes, we need to play better especially if we have postseason aspirations.
Sometimes we lose sight of the fact that there's not a ton of talent difference between teams in the NFL and it comes down to execution and random chance. Our DBs drop a lot of balls. It always seems like other teams' DBs drop two very watchable INTs a game as well. We need to execute better but we're always going to have dropped balls and penalties and bad bounces.

But yeah it sure would be nice to just dominate a team sometime, anytime. It's been a long while.
